3. Creating New Project:
First, download and install the latest STM32CubeIDE from here.
After installing the IDE, open the IDE and it will ask you create workspace.
Call this workspace as STM32H5_Tut (Can be any name you want) and click on launch:
Next, click on Start new STM32 Project as following:
Next search the STM32H563ZI and select the one with Nucleo-144 as following:
Note: Select the bare bone chip not the Nucleo-144.
Click on Next and give the project a name and click on finish.
Now the project is created.
Note: During the creating of the project, it will ask you the following:
Just click on yes.
3. First Project: Blink an LED:
Since this Nucleo-144 board features 3 LEDs. We need to know which pins are connected to these LED, in order to find these pins, we need to take a look at the schematic of the board.
Go to the STM32H563ZI Nucleo-144 website from here.
Next, select CAD and then the schematic as following:
This will download the pdf file.
Then from the schematic pdf file:
From the schematic:
- Green LED is connected to PB0.
- Yellow LED is connected to PF4.
- Red LED is connected to PG4.
In this guide, we shall use the green LED which is connected to PB0.
From the CubeIDE:
Select PB0 and set it as GPIO Output as shown.
Note: If this windows didn’t appear, click on blinky.ioc and it will appear.
Next click on generate code as following:
This will save the project and generate the code.
After that, the main.c will be opened.
In user code 3, which is in while 1 loop, we shall toggle the LED.
We have two options:
- HAL_GPIO_TogglePin(GPIOx, GPIO_Pin)
- HAL_GPIO_WritePin(GPIOx, GPIO_Pin, PinState)
The toggle function will toggle the state of the pin, if the pin is high, it will set it low and vise versa.
For the Write, it will set the pin to specific state either high or low.
Here, we shall use the write pin function.
In user code 3 in while loop, add the following:
HAL_GPIO_WritePin(GPIOB, GPIO_PIN_0, GPIO_PIN_SET); HAL_Delay(500); HAL_GPIO_WritePin(GPIOB, GPIO_PIN_0, GPIO_PIN_RESET); HAL_Delay(500);
The write function will take the following parameters:
- GPIOx which is the GPIO port, GPIOB in this case.
- GPIO_Pin which is the pin number, GPIO_PIN_0 in this case.
- PinState, which is the state to be set, either Set to high or reset to low.
That all for the guide.
Save the project, build it and run it on your STM32H563Zi board.
4. Results:
Notice that the green LED is changing the state each half second as the code shows.
Happy coding 😉
